Review: Dragon Actually by G.A. Aiken #ParanormalRomance

The Blurb

It's not always easy
being a female warrior with a nickname like Annwyl the Bloody. Men tend to
either cower in fear - a lot - or else salute. It's true that Annwyl has a
knack for decapitating legions of her ruthless brother's soldiers without
pausing for breath. But just once it would be nice to be able to really talk to
a man, the way, she can talk to Fearghus the Destroyer.

Too bad that Fearghus is a dragon, of the large,
scaly and deadly type. With him, Annwyl feels safe - a far cry from the
feelings aroused by the hard-bodied, arrogant knight Fearghus has arranged to
help train her for battle. With her days spent fighting a man who fill her with
fierce, heady desire, and her nights spent in the company of a magical creature
who could smite a village just by exhaling, Annwyl is sure life couldn't get
any stranger. She's wrong...

My Review

This was a well-rounded
book. Romance, paranormal action, and the funniest dialogue I’ve read in a long
time. Imagine my surprise when the story of Annwyl and Fearghus ended and that
of Fearghus’ parents began. Yipee!

Aiken engulfs the
reader in the dragon’s world. Annwyl will now forever remain one of my favorite
characters. She was such a wonderful, dynamic, take no crap from anyone kind of
woman, who also had a vulnerable soft side.

Feargus was an alpha
to the core. Who better to be with such a strong woman? No other would have
been able to be with her, she would have killed them.

I’m so glad that
there are more books in the series that are already written. I don’t have to
wait.
